A  SIMPLIFICATION   OF   PITMANIC   SHORTHAND 

A  new  Manual  entitled  -'COLLEGE  COURSE  OF  SHORT- 
HAND." Copyright  1903.  Contains  191  pages,  of  which  94  are  full- 
page  engravings.  A  complete  Shorthand  Course  for  the  Beginner.  An 
excellent  textbook  in  every  way.  Better  for  both  teacher  and  student. 
Each  line  of  shorthand  has  its  key  opposite  on  the  previous  page. 
Every  principle  is  so  well  illustrated,  so  simple  and  uniform  that  no 
formal  rules  are  needed.  No  multitude  of  exceptions  to  worry  the 
student.  No  confusing  word-signs  and  tangled  principles  to  be  prac- 
ticed. No  new  Vowel  Arrangement  to  be  learned.  The  order  of 
vowels  as  everybody  knows  them,  a — e — i — o— u,  is  at  once  applied. 
No  swinging  of  stems  in  making  R  and  L  hooks,  as  all  R  hooks  are 
uniformly  made  small  (keeping  their  former  place  on  straight  stems), 
and  all  L  hocks  are  uniformly  made  large,  but  on  same  side  as  R 
hooks,  thus  avoiding  a  great  deal  of  confusion.  This  entire  uniformity 
is  very  valuable.  Greater  speed  is  obtained  in  writing  and  in  less 
than  half  the  time  it  takes  by  other  systems.  It  is  read  more  easily 
and  correctly.  The  lessons  are  original,  very  practical,  and  nicely 
graded  to  encourage  the  student.  Beginners  become  interested  in  the 
study  at  once.  Students  do  not  give  it  up  in  discouragement.  Once 
learned,  it  is  easily  retained.  It  embodies  the  greatest  advance  in 
shorthand  since  1840.  Much  valuable  time  is  saved  for  the  student, 
as  he  can  begin  position  writing  and  reading  (page  7)  immediately 
after  the  Introduction.  Beginning  with  page  14,  easy  phrases  are 
constantly  applied  throughout  the  book  so  that  the  student  is  accus- 
tomed to  their  use  on  completion  of  the  course,  as  experience  has 
shown  that  students  do  not  take  kindly  to  phrasing  unless  introduced 
early  and  applied  frequently.  Vowel  Marks  are  introduced  later  (page 
29)  as  helps  to  the  student,  not  as  a  new  study  to  retard  his  progress. 
Not  for  general  application  in  the  future,  but  only  for  such  occasional 
discriminate  use  that  will  put  the  student  at  once  on  his  guard  to 
make  his  shorthand  notes  legible.  The  words  your,  -which,  much, 
<S:c. ,  are  classed  as  abbreviations,  and  the  student  is  occasionally  shown 
where  he  can  abbreviate  to  advantage.

INTRODUCTION. 


The  Consonants  form  the  framework  of  Shorthand  Writing. 
The  Vowels  are  generally  omitted,  but  are  indicated  by  the  posi- 
tion of  the  Consonants. 

There  are  three  kinds  of  positions  used  for  Shorthand  Writing  : 
i,  above  ;  2,  on,  and  3,  through  (or  under)  the  Writing  Line. 
Then  by  dividing  the  Vowels  a  e  i  o  u  into  three  sections,  we  can 
indicate  a  certain  section  by  each  of  the  three  positions,  thus  : — 


a 


o        u 

In  the  last  section  we  include  the  diphthongs  oi  and  ou. 

First  Position  of  Consonants  (above  the  line)  therefore  indi- 
cates some  sound  of  the  vowel  a. 

Second  Position  of  Consonants  (on  the  line)  indicates  some 
sound  of  e  or  i.  Words  like  by,  my,  why,  fly,  etc.,  are  written 
in  second  position  because  the  y  has  the  sound  of  i. 

Third  Position  of  Consonants  (through  or  under  the  line)  in- 
dicates some  sound  of  o  or  u,  including  the  diphthongs  oi  and  ou. 
Words  like  few,  new,  etc.,  are  written  in  third  position  because 
the  ew  has  the  sound  of  u. 

The  Consonants  R  and  S  have  each  two  shoithand  signs,  for 
convenience.  Sometimes  one  form  is  more  useful,  sometimes  the 
other. 

The  signs  for  CH  and  J,  and  the  straight  form  of  R  are  derived 
from  the  small  u  in  slanted  handwriting.  From  the  upward  stroke 
we  derive  the  straight  r,  and  from  the  downward  stroke  we  derive 
the  ch  and  j. 

The  other  Consonant  signs  are  derived  from  four  circles  divided 
into  quarters  as  on  the  opposite  page. 

C  in  cap,  come,  etc.,  is  written  as  k  in  shorthand. 

C  in  face,  ice,  etc.,  is  written  as  s. 

X  is  a  double  letter,  and  is  represented  by  ks  or  gz. 

The  straight  form  of  r  should  always  be  written  upwards  ;  I  is 
generally  written  upwards,  and  sh  is  written  upwards  in  a  few 
instances. 

All  silent  consonants  are  omitted  in  shorthand.

i.     BOOKKEEPING   AND   COMMERCE.     The   objects  of 

commercial   bookkeeping  are  : 

2.  1st.     To    record    the    liabilities   and    assets,    gains    or 

losses, 

3.  of  an  individual,   partnership,  company  or  other  corpo- 

ration. 

4.  2d.     To  enable  the  financial  position  of  the   foregoing 

to   be   placed   before 

5.  those    interested    either  in  the  credit  or   capital  of   the 

concern. 

6.  These    objects    are    generally    attained    by   means    of 

the   final   accounts    as 

7.  prepared     from    the     ledger     balances     and     known     as 

trading  and   profit   and   loss  accounts 

8.  and   balance   sheet.      The    trading    account    is   used    for 

the   purpose   of   arriving   at    the  gross   profit 

9.  of    a  business.     Cost  accounts   are  used   to   obtain   sep- 

arate results  for  departments. 

10.  It  is   of  great  practical  importance  and  pecuniary  value 

to  know 

11.  precisely  where   profits  are  made  and    where  losses  are 

incurred.     The  cost   of  the 

12.  manufactured    article    consists    of    material,    wages    and 

indirect  charges. 

13.  The  chief   trouble   is    usually   met   with   in    apportioning 

the  indirect   charges. 

14.  The  most   important   of  these  are    rent,    taxes,  heating, 

lighting,    motive   power,    management, 

15.  office  expenses,  advertising,  traveling  expenses,  etc.    They 

must  be  apportioned  to  the  departments  by  percentage. 

16.  {From    address    of  James    Martin    before    the    Loudon 

Chamber  of  Commerce,  March   6th,   J902.)

5.  Mr.  F.  J.   S. .     Dear    Sir,  In   reply   to    your   letter 

of  the  25th   inst.   I   beg  to  say   that   we 

6.  receive    a  certain    amount    per    ton    for    handling    the 

company's    shipments  at  the  junction, 

7.  but   as  it   does   not   pay   us   to  keep  a   man   there    per- 

manently 

8.  we  employ  Mr.    Hughes  at    so  much   per    shipment   to 

look 

9.  after    things    during    the    quiet    season.      We    lose     ot 

course  in   all   these 

10.  transactions,   but    save  the  expense  of  a  permanent    rep- 
resentative there.     Very  truly  yours  .   .   .  May  12th,  1903. 

11.  Messrs.     W.    R. &   Co.     Gentlemen,    We   beg   to 

confirm  our  verbal  order  of  this   morning 

12.  to  go  ahead  on  the  work  of  making  the  improvements 

as   set    forth 

13.  in  your    letter  of   January  31st,   and    as    per    specifica- 

tions  furnished    by   you. 

14.  You  to  do  the  whole  work  for  the  sum  of  $5000  ( Five 

thousand    dollars), 

15.  and  we  to  retain  all   old  material  that  is  of   any  value 

and  which 

16.  we    will    dispose    of   later.      Respectfully    yours     .   .   . 

May  12th,    1903.
